    This cafe is an absolute GEM in Seward. A super cute, well acquainted, cozy little cafe that overlooks the water and offers a simple and well executed menu. The coffee & chai was amazing. The duffins (doughnut muffins) kept bringing me back and the service was kind, attentive and hospitable. The food came out in a timely manner, the simplest menu items had little twists that made them extra delicious yet approachable and the view was perfect to start your day in the right mindset. Our family loved it and even though we went to other coffee shops we kept coming back here daily to actually scratch that coffee itch! Also attached to a cute store that serves wine & has cute trinkets. Thinking it could be the perfect marrying point for friends that need an up and a down but still want to get together. The patio area is accessible to both and the hallway connects them on the interior. Very well done.

    Salmon chowder

    Excellent spot for lunch in Seward with views of the water from the patio! After kayaking in the rain, my friends and I really wanted some soup and our guide recommended this spot for lunch. The staff here were very friendly and told us they had the best chowder. I got a bowl and I would agree. It was salmon chowder with clams, potatoes, and veggies and bread on the side. It was hearty, creamy, and exactly what I wanted. It was packed when we got here but soon after ordering a table opened up.

    This was my favorite restaurant in all of my AK visit (Seward, Anchorage, and Denali). The smoked salmon was amazing as were many of their other breakfast items. I would have come back to try their lunch options the next day if I had more time! AMAZING do not skip this place.

    Wonderful place! Lovely staff offering up great food! Beautiful views from the dining area. Open for breakfast and lunch. We had the old faithful and the yogurt bowl. Both were amazing! The reindeer sausage is so good! We were here two days and went back the second day.

    We stopped in for a bite to eat and did we hit the jackpot! The homemade smoked salmon chowder was piping hot, loaded with smoked salmon, potatoes and veggies. Warmed our bellies on this cool day. Also ordered the Chubby Mermaid (tuna, Granny Smith apple, avocado and sprouts). Also delicious! Cool spot with delicious food.

    Stopped by for lunch. Wonderful pastries, sandwiches and coffee, along the waterfront.

    They offer coffee, sandwiches, pastries, beer and wine.

    Wow! What a find? So glad we decided to come here from lunch. Their paninis and sandwiches are very tasty. The staff is super nice and the food came out quick!

    Had a delicious meal and what a beautiful little shop on Ressurection Bay! The Oakie is my fave sandwich, I've had it a couple of times, but I did pick up. This time I got to sit with my Dad and enjoy a cup of chowder, too! Some of the best chowder I've ever had. The food was delicious and the staff were friendly and kind, timely, and doing every task without us even asking. I enjoyed it and will be back!!

    Counter and menu.

    Ate here twice during our visit - lunch then breakfast. Great atmosphere and better food. Staff is incredibly kind and welcoming. Sandwiches are filling and very good. Breakfast the same.

    This was really great! Hopped off the train and checked out the sealife center next door. Stopped by for lunch and service was nice and quick, we just chilled outside with the gorgeous view until we could eat! They gave me my latte in a cute mug and it came out before the food did. The panini was nice and crispy, and they even subbed out sundried tomatoes for regular at my request. Boy's sandwich was... piled with lettuce. He ended up with a side salad alongside the 'wich. 10/10 just for that view.

    Order counter inside.

    We loved Zudys! Located at the Water front park in Seward, it's housed in an historic railway station. Cute eaterie with a good assortment of sandwiches, soups, and salads. Sandwiches are definitely shareable! We didn't try the desserts but they had a good choice of cheesecakes and cakes. Order at the counter and they bring you the food at your table. For the amount of business they do, the food came out very quickly. They also have outdoor seating.

    We stopped in today on the way back from Homer. We knew they had been up for sale for some time,…read moreand our server confirmed it was now under new management. The menu was different but I was happy to see they still had the chicken wrap on there. It went downhill from then. I asked for a Gold Medal Chicken Wrap, with crispy chicken (ranch was not an option, previously it was my go-to choice) you could have hot wings sauces, or honey BBQ - and this is my bad, I initially thought that it said honey mustard, so I said honey mustard. It came with a choice of tater tots onion rings or fries. I chose tater tots, but changed my mind to fries. Husband just ordered a piece of carrot cake. I was very disappointed with this wrap, not just in comparison to the wrap that used to be available, but just as a wrap being offered by a restaurant in general. The honey bbq sauce (I had asked for some on the side, to dip it into) was red. And I couldn't taste any BBQ smokiness. It was very tomatoey. I queried about my honey-mustard error, and she showed me the menu, and that mistake was definitely on me. I asked if she had some ranch I could use as a dip, and was brought some. So anyway, the wrap - loosely wrapped and quite floppy, and warm, as though it had been grilled or broiled, which rendered the lettuce leaf and tomato slice warm, limp and floppy. The previous wrap from Sunrise, and most other wraps in restaurants where I've had them, will serve an unwarmed tortilla with raw crunchy vegetables. The Sunrise previously did so - lettuce, diced tomatoes, diced red onion, shredded cheese, julienned carrots and crispy chicken in a cool creamy ranch dressing, it was a tightly wrapped, crunchy delight, and out of this world. I recommended it to anyone passing that way. The best thing I have to say about this one, is that there was plenty of chicken and it was tender. There was too much of the honey bbq sauce in it though, and the chicken wasn't crispy anymore, the breading had gone very soggy. It was a disappointment. As were the tater tots, when I had requested fries. The server was pleasant enough, and I tipped her well, but I wasn't happy with the food at all. Won't be returning anytime soon

    Im not one to complain too much on the road but this was a huge disappointment. My clam chowder was…read morefrom a can and the huge chunks of potatoes were probably from breakfast home fries and now also floating in my little bowl of soup. This establishment needs to regroup and decide on a decent quality of food. Fry food just doesn't make it for everybody.

The single story buildings are very…read morewell spaced with good sized buffers of trees separating them, giving a sense of isolation that you don't actually have. Well done. Further there are a couple of easy, scenic walks on the property. A 1 mile fairly flat nature trail through a wooded area and a 1-2 mile walk to and along the river, also fairly flat (albeit there is a hill with a phone at the bottom, Princess will send a shuttle to retrieve you). We used it as a base for walking the Russian River and Russian Lakes trail (to the first lake), both highly recommended. With more time we would have headed to Juneau Falls...there are a ton of hikes in the area, all which sound tremendous. Could also be used as a base for Seward and exploring the Exit Glacier/Harding Icefield hikes. Have fun! Oh. The rooms. Kinda rustic but clean and spacious, a wood burning stove and TV (used neither), balcony, and very importantly a laundry. Which we made good use of. Check in. We arrived at ~1:30 and lying in wait was a sugary sweet desk clerk who *very* sweetly and in no uncertain terms told us that check in was 3PM. The only thing missing was a "Bless your Heart". No wi-fi in the rooms, it is available in the lodge where there is a balcony tailor made for sipping wine and enjoying the river views.

    Beautiful scenary and location. Food was pretty good at dinner, but breakfast buffet was just ok…read more Don't get the eggs. Prices were high so we traveled to Wildman's for some food and supples. Great people there.
